While trying to make a "class" (metatable + constructor function) for big integers I stumbled upon a weird error. It went off a couple of times before, but I decided to finish debugging the "class" before I report it in case it went away. It's not a memory error or a stack overflow, because they get reported properly. I don't use any actual coroutines, nor you will find "yield" anywhere in my code. The code itself is a bit computation and memory heavy, there's probably a better approach to this, but none of it justifies such an error. Another thing I noticed is that it breaks on seemingly random lines, and almost any change to the code makes it change the line it reports as the source of the error. It even breaks in a different spot on the web than on my computer! (look at the line shown on the thumbnail vs what actually happens when you press and hold X)
The showcase is a simple program showing more and more powers of 15 as you press X. An interesting fact is that it breaks on different values depending on wether you press-and-hold X or repeatedly press X. It's all very confusing.

CYBERCRUSH
In Cybercrush, you are a netrunner hacking into a corporate mainframe to steal confidential files…
In typical cyberpunk fashion, this mainframe is abstracted as an old-school low-res icon-based grid of swappable binary numbers (which you are naturally accessing through a glitchy old cyberdeck ;-)
The rules are simple: you steal files by matching identical binary icons (there are four: 00, 01, 10 and 11) in multiples of 4 (so 4, 8, 12 etc.) Doing so is called a hack: the files are downloaded, then erased from the corporate database. The higher the number of tiles in the group, the more advanced the hack and the more files are transfered. In summary: the first four binary icons are worth one file each, the next four (i.e. 5 to 8) are worth two files each, the next four (9 to 12) are worth four files each and so on and so forth. For example, matching 12 icons increases your tally by 4 x (1+2+4) = 28 files, 16 icons by 4 x (1+2+4+8) = 60 files!

A mod that procedurally generates levels for CELESTE Classic. :)
Just a little project to see how well it could work, so each room uses the same procedure and doesn't have too much progression- was pleasantly surprised by some of the levels though!
Left/Right to set the seed at the title screen.
Below's a near-endless version of the above (32768 rooms) with perma-death and a run re-cap at the title screen.

Bit Defender: The Game puts you at the controls of your PC's very own antivirus software. Your ship, The Bit Defender, patrols your computer's system data, blasting away any viruses, malware, or other nefarious computer invaders that it detects. But be careful, if the Bit Defender comes into direct contact with too many of these malicious files, it could spell disaster for your computer system!
I've always been a big fan of old arcade shooters, Galaga, Space Invaders, Xevious, etc. I decided that my first game would be in the same vein. Hopefully the bit defender company won't get too mad that I used them as my inspiration lol. I've been coding it for about a week or two now, but this is my first official alpha release. The game is playable, albeit simplified for now. I have a working title screen, working gameplay, sound effects, enemies, and scorekeeping. Much more will be added as I continue to better my LUA skills. Stay tuned for updates!

@zep it looks like if you do a cstore from a cart in splore or an exported binary, what it saves to the .lexaloffle/pico-8/cstore folder is only those regions of cart ROM that were cstored, and then next time you launch it from splore (or next time you run the exported binary), only those regions of the ROM are copied to base RAM; everything else is blank
I'm guessing the cstore file is intended be overlayed on top of the original ROM contents when copying from cart ROM to cart RAM (and that's why it only saves the changed parts?), but it looks like there was a mistake in implementation and the cstore file contents actually are the only thing copied to base RAM?
I can't reproduce the behavior when using a p8 or p8.png file; this happens only with splore or from an exported binary
To reproduce:
- load a cart from the splore or launch a binary export of a cart that contains data and calls cstore specifying a partial section of cart memory, e.g. cstore(0, 0, 0x2000) (which is what my jigsaw puzzle cart does but I'm about to change it to write the entire ROM as a workaround ;p)

A great mix of Galaxian and a bit of Moon Patrol on wavy ocean.
Enjoy!

This is not a game. This is an environment to think about something. Maybe you want to think about a project, or something personal. Maybe you want to think about life. Think about it helps you thinking about it.

A Dungeons and Dragons stat calculator, using the 4d6 drop the lowest method
Simply click the X key and a list of stats, their total, and their stat modifiers will be generated. Made with assistance from the PCIO-8 Discord due to my poor coding skills.

Hi everyone!
I am making a little game where you scare off crows to protect your vegetable garden:
I am trying to make the crows pick a vegetable to target when they spawn. I have a function that will make them chase down a point by entering its X and Y value. My problem is that I don't know how to extract the vegetables' X and Y values because of how I've set things up.
Every vegetable is decided at random at the game's outset, and stored inside another table, like so:
[note: dif is an integer, adding more vegetables at higher difficulties]
function setup()
for i=1,dif do
add(vegetables, {
x=originx+(rnd(40)+10)*cos(rnd(360)/360),
y=originy+(rnd(40)+10)*sin(rnd(360)/360),
w=6,
h=6,
[more variables and stuff you don't need to care about...]
})
end
end |
My question is, how would I go about accessing the X and Y values for these? I have been trying something like this...
